Rittz - Nowhere To Run Lyrics
[Hook]I want to run awayBecause I know there's got to be a better placeSometimes I really want to run awayBut the more I try the more I can't escapeBecause there ain't nowhere to runInstead I'm drunk, praying to the LordSaying, "Here I come,"Sitting on my bed with a loaded gunPointed at my headAnd then my girlfriend screams put the gun awayI told her love just saved the dayLet's pack our stuff and run awayFrom all this bullshit[Verse 1: Rittz]Man I hate my life, my job, I feel like my days is awfulWorking nine to five, but give her five to elevenLimping in my front door looking tired and sweatingLast thing I feel like doing is going and writing a recordMy *****in' socks are soaking wet, my girl gotta go to bed,These opposite schedules getting harder to manage,Working in a kitchen with a bunch of MexicansAnd I swear these mother*****ers talk about me in SpanishMy only plan was to make it rappingAfter so long you start thinking if this shit was meant to be it'd happen,If it wasn't for my homie Yelawolf believin' in meI'd probably still be feeling like my dream was shatteredCause my team is scattered, but now I got a second chanceAnd it's time to get the fire backAt a young age, I done developed so many bad habitsI feel like I'mma have to snort a line to even try to write a rapOn top of that I can't afford the power bill,Rappin' ain't payin'; makin' nine dollars an hour stillCan't afford to have a kid, can't afford to put my girl on the pillPlus I hate the way a condom feelHow's your family feel 'bout your music 'bout your numbers?Y'all they said that it was dumb and never gave a shitI be smilin' now, when they tell me they proud,But then the climate turn around and say some racist shit,So it's strainin' my relationshipI told my girl I need her; I'd never leave her if I made it bigOne day I want to marry you and raise a kid,Gone all night long but I ain't chasin' chicks,I'm trying to write but always feeling like I can't commit,Can't come with, the shit I want to say and vent,Instead, I'm steadily drowning am I wastin' it?Sometimes I wish I could escape from this[Hook]I want to run awayBecause I know there's got to be a better placeSometimes I really want to run awayBut the more I try the more I can't escapeBecause there ain't nowhere to runInstead I'm drunk, praying to the LordSaying here I comeSitting on my bed with a loaded gunPointed at my headAnd then my girlfriend screams put the gun awayI told her love just saved the dayLet's pack our stuff and run awayFrom all this bullshit[Verse 2: Rittz]I just missed another show cause I gotta workIf I try to request any more days offThen my boss gon' fire me,He said he's tired of me tryin' himI wanna tell him to go ***** himselfBut I know ain't nobody hirin',Besides I'm twenty-nine, my future's on the lineAnd my girlfriend rely on me, to try to iron these,Problems we created down entirelyA year ago, this time, we was in a bind, in a dire needTo find a place to live, we was 'bout to lose the cribHad to get a job, that's exactly what I didAll for me is set and now this rapper shit is deadLast Christmas, we ain't have the cash to get a giftFor each other, man, I'm sick of the struggleDoing drugs made it easy to acceptThat I settled getting used to, having nadaMy doctor said I got a bleedin' ulcer in my tummyBut I still continue to shootRot-gut liquor in my stomach, trying to numb itCan't afford Crown, so I'm sippin' on McCormick'sTryin' to write a rap, but I can't think of a chorusI bet I snort some meth I think some men are menopausalAnd Wolf said, record exec's checkin' for usSo you better step it up, they're scanning the performanceSnap back in the music industryI'm missing leads, sick of kissing assMan I question my enduranceSo I pour another shot, trying to calm me someAlcohol really can't resolve it noneStill pissed off, thinking everyone is dumbBecause I don't give a ***** what team LeBron is onWhoever follows on, Twitter the comments on,My Facebook wall tellin' y'all what all I'm doin',I'm a ray of sunshine, yeah, ball of funBut they can look up and I'll be gone[Hook]I want to run awayBecause I know there's got to be a better placeSometimes I really want to run awayBut the more I try the more I can't escapeBecause there ain't nowhere to runInstead I'm drunk, praying to the LordSaying here I comeSitting on my bed with a loaded gunPointed at my headAnd then my girlfriend screams put the gun awayI told her love just saved the dayLet's pack our stuff and run awayFrom all this bullshit
